    I have large pores and need a liquid foundation. (preferably drugstore)
    I have tried: loreal truematch, neutrogena skin clearing, and maybelline miner power and they all seep into my skin and make my pores look like craters! (not really...but they're really noticeable.)
    I currently use maybelline dream matte mousse foundation (the pot one) and i absolutely love it. but i'd like to switch it up
    i also apply a mask once a week to help my pores get smaller, but its not really my holy grail.
    thanks in advance!

    mix honey with sugar and lemon and scrub it on your face, and it reduces the look of pores. also, spreading tomato juice on your face with a cotton ball and letting it sit works too

    Use Witchhazel cover your face at night before you go to bed, use a cotton wipe or makeup sponge to apply. This will close up those pores for you :D (results may take up to a week to be noticeable)

    hey there :) i can give you some natural tips but if it really persists, maybe you should talk to a dermatologist about it.

    you can try exfoliating using the tip of a tomato, coat it in sugar (preferably unrefined) and then rub it GENTLY around your face.

    another mask that really 'tightens' your face is an egg white mask- take an egg white, whisk it a little to make it a bit foamy, then apply it to your face until your face feels really really stiff and the egg white is dry. then wash it off. this tightens your skin and makes pores smaller :)

    hope it helped, good luck!

    I also have large pores and I love Bare Minerals makeup, even though it's not liquid, it works well to hide the pores. I use the "base" then something called Mineral Viel on top of that and it really works well.

    Hello:) I don't know of any liqiud foundations (I use only powder) but I think I heard this trick that if you get an ice cube and run it all over your face it should tighten your pores:)

    I use PUR Minerals, I don't have large pours but it's my favorite foundation yet!

    You can get it online, or at stores like Ulta or Dillards.
    Good Luck:)

    I have to agree with the first poster, witch hazel really does work wonders!

    Try reading this article, it'll hopefully be of some use :)

    As for a cover-up, try Clinique Pore-Minimizer foundation...there's other additions to the range, such as a serum and concealer too, they're great :)

    have you considered going to the dermatologist? i had smiler problems but with acne, and extremely extremely sensitive skin. i tried EVERYTHING and i gave up and went to the doctors. he gave a a prescription and my skin is absolutely amazing with the prescribed product he gave me. the doctor works with you to find what fits you best. hope i helped!
